Kitesurfing Ladies Wetsuits Reviews
ION Products Amaze Select Back Zip
I recently had the opportunity to test the all-new Amaze Select 5/4 Back Zip from Ion, a wetsuit that is absolutely loaded with tech and features that make their premium wetsuit worth its weight in gold! In 2022, Ion suits have a few new features that are especially exciting. First up is the new Max_Flex fabric. This cutting-edge material is…
ION Products Amaze Core Front Zip
Having a proper wetsuit is crucial in the UK during the harsh winters. When it’s cold enough to consider if you really want to get out for a session, the right wetsuit can make the decision an easy one. It’s a good thing I had the latest Ion Amaze Core 5/4 Front Zip in my closet, or the late winter…
Manera Bikisuit
I have recently had the pleasure to kite in some warmer waters, though warmer than my usual UK, it was still not quite warm enough for just a bikini and a rashy. This gave me the perfect opportunity to try out the new Manera Bikisuit. Firstly the suit arrived in a simple cardboard box, with no plastic wrapping or any…
Prolimit Fire-X FreeZip
As someone who is in the water all year round an awful lot, I have in recent years begun to favour top-end suits as these can be easily justified. Not only that, 5 years ago a mid-range suit would leave little to write home about other than a potential good look and, if you were lucky, a lone patch of…
Truli Wetsuits Truli-Mi
Over recent years we have noticed the number of women’s specific watersports, and namely kitesurfing, products on the market increasing – which is awesome! Some these are rider-owned brands, run by women who couldn’t find what they were looking for readily available and they took matters into their own hands. This same scenario goes for Truli wetsuits and founder Mia…
Manera Meteor X10D Ladies Shorty LS
This ladies shorty from Manera oozes style but also features all the tech found in the men's suit, which is a refreshing change in terms of female wetsuit design, often we get lesser quality materials and features due to the lower number of sales. Thankfully Manera have gone all out with this suit, and it is packed with useful technology…
ION Products Isis Amp
The choice of ION wetsuits is astounding, and that goes for the women’s range too! Each year more technology and features are built into the suits, and invariably a new design is introduced to the line-up. Last year the Isis Amp was the newcomer, and it’s proved to be popular. Having now tried it out personally, it’s easy to see…
Mystic Diva Front-Zip
Fresh for this year, the Diva Front-Zip wetsuit is another addition to the Mystic wardrobe. It’s great to see the technology, style and designs improving across women’s neoprene products, and Mystic have always been ones to lead the game for the ladies. Front-zip wetsuits have had a bit of a reputation in the past for being a menace to get…
NeilPryde Serene Back Zip
Neil Pryde have a long history in the watersports industry, and the NP accessories brand is the more recent, edgy side of the brand aimed at a variety of watersports enthusiasts, in particular kitesurfers. The Serene Back Zip suit (there is also a Front Zip version of the same name), is the women’s premium offering. It’s a classic looking wetsuit,…
ION Products Jewel
ION have an extensive women’s wetsuit line up catering for pretty much every budget and with a whole host of options within each model range. The choice is seemingly endless as I lost count! The Jewel is one of their mid-range suits just down from the all-singing, all-dancing Jewel Select models. This isn’t the underdog though, as the Jewel suit…
Mystic Diva
The Diva wetsuit from Mystic is their top of the range female specific offering. It features all the attention to detail that is present in the men’s line-up, yet in a suit designed for the female figure. It’s great that women’s specific products are now on a par with men’s for technical features, and this suit is loaded with them!…
Prolimit Fire
The Fire suit from Prolimit is their mid range offering and the pricing is incredibly good for the technology and features it includes. We have tested out the 5/3 double lined version, but there is also a Fire Mesh option which has a single lined smooth skin finish to work even better against wind chill. Prolimit have proved to make…
Prolimit Pure Girl Fire Steamer
Having worn the Pure Girl Oxygen suit from Prolimit for most of the last winter and being a fan of its warmth and flexibility, I was keen to try a suit from the Fire range and see how it compared. The Pure Girl Fire series is the mid-range in their women’s wetsuit collection. Well constructed and designed, with plenty of…
ION Products Jewel
The subtitle on the Ion Products website for the Jewel is “Beauty-Design-Stretch-Warmth” and it ticks each of those claims pretty well! Designed predominantly for the kite/wake/windsurf and SUP markets there’s plenty of attention to detail with leg drainage holes and integrated ankle cuffs ensuring toasty warm legs, not to mention the built in ‘Crash Padz’ to protect your shins. The…

The Pure Oxygen is the high-end suit in the Prolimit ladies ‘Pure’ range. It’s been designed specifically for kitesurfing so is flexible in all the right places, has leg drainage holes to get rid of any unwanted liquid in the suit and features Velcro cuffs at the ankle to prevent that icy winter water from shooting up your leg.
